Question

the annual sales at a company are 100,000.00 in the year 2020 and increasing at the rate of 4%per year. what is its total amount after 10 years?

Answer 1

Answer:

Earlier, you were asked to find the number of grams of barium that will remain after 100 years if you start with 200 grams and the half-life of this barium isotope is 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of exponential decay, so we can once again use the exponential form

f(x)=a⋅bx−h+k

. In this case, a = 200, the starting amount; b is 1/2, the rate of decay; x-h = 100/10 = 10, and k = 0.

P=200⋅1210=200⋅11024=0.195
